Fusion Plasma Researcher

Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden KTH Royal Institute of Technology Full time
About the Project

The ultimate goal of fusion plasma physics is to develop commercial fusion reactors. However, several challenges and issues must be resolved on the way to building a first fusion power plant. One of the key issues is to understand the so-called high confinement tokamak regime, where steep gradients develop in the plasma edge to form a pedestal.

This project aims at developing the understanding of the pedestal behavior, in part via experimental data analysis of present-day fusion experiments and in part via theoretical modelling. The project will be carried out in an international framework and the student will work in close collaboration with partner institutions from other countries, primarily within Europe.

Requirements for Admission
  • To be admitted to postgraduate education, the applicant must have basic eligibility in accordance with either of the following:
  1. passed a second cycle degree (for example a master's degree), or
  2. completed course requirements of at least 240 higher education credits, of which at least 60 second-cycle higher education credits, or
  3. acquired, in some other way within or outside the country, substantially equivalent knowledge

The candidate must have a Master's degree in Physics, Engineering Physics, Materials Science or a corresponding degree. Excellent programming skills are required, particularly in Python, IDL, MATLAB, or similar languages.

Key Qualifications
  • Independently pursue his or her work
  • Collaborate with others
  • Have a professional approach
  • Analyse and work with complex issues
  • Describe and present scientific results in English in written and oral presentations
  • Present knowledge of physics, mathematics, and programming
